It's taken a fair while, but it seems that the World Wide Web is finally ready to embrace audio.

Previously web developers have had to depend on Flash, but with the arrival of HTML5 it seems that interesting audio functionailty built right into a site's code. Check out this tantalising HTML5 audio visualisation video from www.storiesinflight.com.

Apparently the visualisation looks much better on the site itself, though you'll probably need to download the latest fully patched beta version of your browser to see it in action.
